Green tea
Tea from Japan - Sencha Fukamushicha Chiran
This Spring sencha also named "Fukamushicha" due to the long steaming during the fixation process, offers with its broken needles shaped leaves, a fresh and vegetal infusion developing a pleasant umami flavor with steamed vegetables notes.
ORIGIN:
Country : Japan
Region :Kagoshima Province, Chiran Region
Harvest : Harvested early May, Spring crop
Singularities : A Japanese green tea is called Fukamushicha when it undergoes prolonged steaming during manufacture process. The leaves are therefore broken and the color of the liquor more intense. Here, we have a blend of the Yutakamidori and Kanayamodori cultivasr. The ancient volcanoes present in the region provide fertile soil, which with a dense mist and significant temperature variations contribute to the quality of the teas produced.

KNOW-HOW & QUALITY
Loose teas and infusions
All our teas and the plants used in infusions are selected through the seasons by our buyers, directly from our producers. All products are chosen for both their visual appearance and their organoleptic qualities. Compliance tests are then commissioned from a COFRAC-accredited external, independent laboratory before any orders are placed.
Once received, batches are placed in quarantine while we carry out two more tests. The first is an organoleptic test completed by our specialists (taste, smell and visual). The second comprises a series of analyses at a COFRAC.-accredited, independent, external lab.
At our factory, we have developed special optical sorting and dusting equipment for our raw ingredients. Delicate items are sorted by hand.
Our teas and infusions are unique recipes available loose, boxed and in sachets. The loose leaf format is the most environmentally friendly choice.
